WILL PLAY ITS LAST PERFORMANCE SUNDAY, SEPTEMBER 5, 2010. TICKETS NOW ON SALE FOR ALL PERFORMANCES THROUGH END OF ENGAGEMENT
SAN FRANCISCO… The San Francisco production of the smash hit musical WICKED will play its final performance on Sunday, September 5, 2010, ending its record-breaking run at the Orpheum Theatre. Tickets are now on sale for all performances through September 5th. Upon closing, WICKED will have played 660 performances and 12 previews.
WICKED, “the San Francisco-born musical that has conquered the world” (San Francisco Chronicle) , and which was recently called “the defining musical of the decade” by The New York Times, has already amassed over $1.8 billion globally in ticket sales and has been seen by over 23 million people worldwide. The show’s enormous popularity was instantly apparent in San Francisco-immediately after it opened, WICKED broke the one-week San Francisco box office record with gross ticket sales of $1,459,610.50 surpassing the record previously held by The Phantom of the Opera. Over one million patrons have seen WICKED in San Francisco, and to date the production has grossed over $75 million.
More deets, after the jump.

Wicked - tickets on sale now at our Orpheum Theatre - is getting a new Elphaba starting March 2, 2010. Eden Espinosa has sworn off this role more than once but here she comes to replace Teal Wicks, who’s been on the job for almost a year now.
Get all the deets below.
It looks like Wicked will be going for another two months for sure. Who knows how long it will last.

Und jetzt, nicht grun:

EDEN ESPINOSA RETURNS TO SAN FRANCISCO AS ‘ELPHABA’ IN THE SMASH HIT MUSICAL WICKED
SAN FRANCISCO… Eden Espinosa, who has performed the role of Elphaba to critical acclaim on Broadway, San Francisco, and in Los Angeles, will return to San Francisco to star in the open-ended engagement of WICKED now playing at the Orpheum Theatre. Since it’s opening in the Bay Area a year ago, WICKED has been seen by close to a million people. And the show continues to be a cultural phenomenon having just shattered its own record to become the highest grossing show in Broadway history.
Beginning March 2, Eden will be joining the San Francisco cast that currently includes Kendra Kassebaum, starring as Glinda. This will not be the first time that Eden and Kendra will perform these roles opposite each other on the stage of the Orpheum Theatre here in San Francisco. They appeared here together when the first national tour of WICKED played a sold-out limited 6-week engagement at the Orpheum Theatre in the summer of 2005.
